Talos examined the cause of death of the remaining seven bodies, and each time he discovered the same situation, sometimes with trauma that caused a skull fracture.
"Company Commander Talos, you and your team are in danger."
Suddenly, Talos' communicator sounded, and a heavy, silence-stricken voice came from it.
But Talos still heard the voice's master.
Kayang.
But the prophet did not panic, but pushed it out of Chimera and said softly:
“Is this a trap?”
"Not the trap, it's just an enchanter who built a nest nearby with a few evil dogs."
"oh."
Talos raised his eyebrows.
"Then is their work to disappear from this team?"
"It should be."
"Can we solve it? After all, this is our goal."
"Yes, but you have to cooperate."
"certainly."
As he said that Talos had left Chimera and sent a signal to prepare the company for action.
"Company Commander, where are we going?"
Bahram's inquiry represented everyone's voice. Before everyone could figure out what happened to Chimera, Talos suddenly led them to the west.
But there was no significant trace of that location
"Just go."
Talos moved westward according to Kayan's guidance, and soon, an amazing scene appeared.
An empty town appeared in the enemy who should have nothing!
"This... without this sign on the map, how could there be a settlement?"
Talos did not speak, but entered the dead city directly.
The place is made of a dry white stone, like chalk stone, but not, even if it touches it, it will turn its surface into dust.
Above the towering town, the sky is purple-blue and dotted with eight stars. As the wind continues, white dust sighs and floats out from the ground and corners of the white walls, like water vapor: like a city that has been suspended from time for tens of thousands of years and slowly disappears.
An empty city, full of white buildings, was empty everywhere.
There is no furniture, no decoration or property, and even no trace of the dead.
Only these quiet towers, houses, and dazed stairs remain.
After walking for an hour or two, they noticed two things.
First, this town that looks small at first glance is actually vast and vast. They pass through the towers, walls, and roofs, and only see the towers, walls, and roofs further away.
Second, this emptiness made people anxious, and the soldiers began to worry because there was nothing except their own footsteps and the sighs of the wind, and nothing was heard except for the few wisps of white dust falling on the walls and door frames.
If they talk to each other, their voices would echo through the surrounding streets, but the echoes would not be immediately sent back.
Each echo comes back in a few minutes, just a little more time to feel comfortable or natural, and each echo is like a perfect copy of the original sound, rather than a sound that is hollowed out by acoustics.
Because of this, they had long stopped talking.
Talos stopped and found that the bird Buyi stopped moving, and the compass was hanging quietly, refusing to swing.
Suddenly, an echo came from the dead white street, and the echo spoke a word.
"Sulassin--"
But no one said anything just now.
The etheric wind stopped briefly and everything was silent.
Talos stood in place, staring coldly ahead, and adrenaline began to burn in his muscles.
Something appeared there, the enemy that could not be captured by the naked eye was very slight, and ordinary humans could not detect it at all, and it was not possible to use machines.
But Talos is far from ordinary.
Before anyone among the recruits could react, the air above Talos was suddenly ignited by a blue flame that bloomed from somewhere. Then a body wearing a twisted power armor pulled the flame away and appeared above, accompanied by a scream of a frozen soul, its claws surrounded the supernatural flame and dived towards the prophet at the first time.
Talos seemed to be ready, activate the sword and slashing it. The lightning on the force field of the sword crackled as the blade swung.
When the prophet turned his heel, it shattered the cold air, and then rubbed against the sharp edge of his claws and sparked a cluster of sparks.
The screaming monster jumped away due to the impact force, but its power armor could not absorb the power of Talos' attack, and its entire body slid and landed on the ground.
Talos immediately followed and swung a cantilever.
The monster also blocked rapidly, and the weapons shook open to each other, and more sparks flew.
It was not until this time that many recruits saw the appearance of the attacker clearly. Bahram, who had read a lot of information in the library, immediately recognized his distorted identity—
"The dimensional claw of heretics!"
Dimensional Claws were once a member of the Astat Legion assault warriors. Due to long-term exposure to subspace, the material form was very corroded in the eyes, and the armor and flesh were completely linked together, eager to cut open, chop and dismember the prey, but because they fell into chaos even more than the raptors, they also lost the ability to speak, reason or create.
However, subspace gives them the ability to cut the dimensions and pass through the physical universe, so the enemies of the Dimensional Claw don't know where these monsters emerged until they die. After a lot of killing, they will sneak back to the nightmarish dimension.
Dimensional claws focus on close-range assassination, so they are often equipped with lightning claws.
Talos kicked the dimensional claw that was howling in front of him, glanced at the opponent's armor, and saw some traces on his shoulder armor.
That was once a symbol of his extremely familiar and extremely proud, a skeleton with blood wings.
"It's the Midnight Lord's Bitch."
Behind him, Sabrin suddenly spoke.
"He carries the sign of a traitor."
Talos looked at the dimensional claws that were howling at him and responded meaningfully:
"Yeah, a sad bunch of bastards."
At this moment, more howling sounded, and five vague figures appeared on the surrounding buildings.
They squat on the roof, and the subspace flames flowed on the twisted and thorny surface of the armor, and were tilted, like an unknown crow.
"Defensive formation!"
Bahram shouted, and the recruits immediately formed a tight circle, raised their guns and pointed at the enemies at high places, surrounded Talos and other commanders. This formation was mainly used to deal with elusive enemies.
Talos knew that this was what Kayan called a nest, a gap between reality and subspace, and the one who controlled it was a demon.
Suddenly, the road ahead caught fire.
